This is a very special place and based on my experience I am sad that I did NOT stayed here much longer. Here are my pros and cons:
Pros:
- The place is in the middle of a desert nature reserve. Beautiful quiet and relaxing
- The room, bed, bathroom, private pool, views are just absolutely perfect. We had an...

I went to Al Maha with family for a quick getaway. One night was not enough. The resort is amazing! Very luxurious and relaxing. I believe they only have 37 suites (and they don't allow children under 10 - I don't think kids would enjoy this resort anyway) so it makes for a more intimate experience. The staff is amazing...

Still our favourite desert resort since 1999! Wonderfully attentive and friendly staff who go out of their way to make your visit the best it can be. Always an amazing experience. Look out for Zibyaan naughty boy camel - so well behaved as well as free roaming wildlife. Highly recommended for a special occasion or just when you feel like...

Wow!! That's all we can say! I don't get what others complained about online. I almost cancelled our trip because of some of the negative reviews. Fortunately, ALL of the negative comments, assuming they were true, were resolved.
Let's begin. I'm ambassador level in SPG which is highest level, above platinum which most hotels don't even know exist. They did...

We had a three night stay in November and we really enjoyed the relaxing hours in the resort. It is a really quiet resort and you can enjoy the quiet hours during the day after the morning desert activity or the afternoon activity. The food is is very good and you risk putting on some weight with three meals a...

Al Maha takes service to a completely different level and the staff here just want you to be happy...and for you to want for nothing. We stayed in an Emirates suite which came complete with its own staff accommodation...not that we have staff! Luxurious tranquility is what this place is all about and we really chilled out for a couple...

We stayed at Al Maha for 3 nights at the beginning of September and have not stopped talking about how fantastic it was. Everything was superb!

Went to Al Maha for a one night stay.
The 2 bedroom Royal Suite is great with 2 large bedrooms, a living room and a large outside deck with its swimming pool and a lovely view across the desert.
Equipment and furniture is a bit ageing and some rugs could do with a replacement...
Food is very good but I...
